'Mahavatar Narsimha'—the 1st chapter of the cinematic universe

This movie isn't just a one-off—it's the first chapter in a whole cinematic universe inspired by Vishnu's 10 avatars. Next up are Mahavatar Parshuram (2027) and Mahavatar Kalki Part 1 (2035).
The story dives into the clash between demon king Hiranyakashyap and his son Prahlad, with Narasimha—the half-lion avatar—front and center.
Backed by Hombale Films and Kleem Productions, the team says they're blending cultural depth with big-screen excitement.
